Cholestasis
Gene: SLC51AComment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics). This gene is associated with a relevant phenotype in OMIM but not Gene2Phenotype. As there is only 1 case there is currently not enough evidence to support a gene-disease association. This gene has been given a Red rating.Created: 14 Sep 2021, 9:46 a.m. | Last Modified: 14 Sep 2021, 9:46 a.m.
Panel Version: 1.87
Single individual reported with homozygous LoF variant, who presented with chronic malabsorptive diarrhoea, easy bruising, episodes of prolonged bleeding that required blood transfusions, and failure to thrive. Laboratory testing at age 2.5 years showed elevated liver transaminases and alkaline phosphatase. Liver biopsy demonstrated portal and periportal fibrosis and hepatocytes with foci of hepatocytic cholestasis. Analysis of bile acids in a blood spot were normal. Treatment with ursodiol and cholestyramine was started at 5 years of age. The coagulopathy resolved and his growth was adequate, but his liver transaminases, direct bilirubin, and GGT levels remained elevated.
